Thinking about your health care wishes but not sure where to start?

We encourage a simple approach:
• Pick your person
• Get your thoughts together
• Have the conversation

It doesn’t have to be complicated. Starting the conversation is what matters most.

Talking about your health care wishes may not be easy, but it is one of the most important conversations you can have.

Alabama's hospitals are here to support you and your loved ones in making those decisions with confidence.

This National Healthcare Decisions Day, April 16, take time to start the conversation and make your wishes known.
